Hot, Customizable Meals for Every New York Studio Set!
Filming in New York moves fast—just ask any grip hustling down Broadway or camera op dodging yellow cabs in Midtown. Best Food Trucks keeps pace by delivering on-set food truck catering for studios in New York that’s as energetic and diverse as the city itself. We coordinate menus, timing, and placement so your crew’s meal break feels like a stroll through a New York street fair—minus the lines.
Our production-friendly team will craft rotating daily menus, secure prime curb space outside Chelsea sound stages, Brooklyn warehouses, or Queens backlots, and streamline mobile ordering so your AD never has to shout “last looks” over a lunch queue. We vet every vendor for NYC permits, liability insurance, and A-grade health inspections, then provide transparent cost analyses that keep you on budget.
Want classic American comfort? Book Yankee Doodle Dandy's for crispy chicken tenders and the legendary Love Me Tender Sandwich that’ll have your gaffer coming back for seconds. Need a quick dessert reset between takes? The Carvel Ice Cream Truck rolls up with soft-serve cones that melt slower than the summer heat on 14th Street.
If your director’s craving thin-crust Sicilian, call in Jiannetto's Pizza for grandma-style squares that taste like Little Italy in a box. Burger lovers can smash their hunger with the sizzling patties from Smash Burger, while plant-forward palates dive into fragrant injera and gomen courtesy of MAKINA Cafe.
Choosing food truck catering over traditional craft services also shrinks packaging and food waste—something every New Yorker who recycles on the subway can appreciate. Let Best Food Trucks handle the logistics so you can focus on the shot list, not the shopping list. From sunrise call times on the Upper West Side to night shoots under the Brooklyn Bridge, we’ve got your studio’s appetite covered.
Fueling Film Sets—and New York’s Small Businesses
Booking a food truck for your New York studio catering does more than feed a hungry crew—it puts money right back into the five boroughs. Most of our trucks are family-run outfits that prep in shared commissary kitchens from Long Island City to Hunts Point, then roll out before sunrise to make your call time. Every falafel, empanada, or artisanal donut you order helps an immigrant entrepreneur pay rent, keeps a kid in dance class, and strengthens the local economy one plate at a time.
Food trucks are also a smart, eco-friendly alternative to traditional craft services. By cooking to order, they slash food waste and run on compact kitchens that sip far less power than a trailer full of chafing dishes. Many of our New York vendors compost scraps, use compostable serviceware, and idle only when Health Code rules demand it. So the next time the production coordinator types “low-budget film catering near me” or “food truck catering for studios in New York” into their phone, remember: with Best Food Trucks you’ll get fresh, fast meals, keep Gotham green, and champion the small businesses that make this city taste like nowhere else.

Food and service was excellent. Arrival of food truck was late. Driver wanted to come half hour earlier (11:30a) to event to prep but ended up showing an hour later (12:30p). Wasn’t able to feed some of my important guests. They missed out on some good food to catch a flight. For the amount of $$ paid, was hoping have event catered on time.

All food was great. Boom boom shrimp was especially good. Cook was understaffed but did a remarkable job under pressure. Kudos.

Friendly, family like service and delicious pasta! I also appreciate the dressing for the Caesar salad being put on the side, so salad does not get soggy.
